Abstract
CLASSIFICATION OF SLOPE DEPOSITS FROM THE ENGINEERING-GEOLOGICAL POINT OF VIEW Summary Engineering-geological characteristics of slope zones should give more attention, than has been given previously, to both differentiation of heterogeneous deposits of these zones 'and the processes modeling them. Three groups of processes: surface mass movements, downwash, and gully erosion are distinguished (Table). The groups of deposits corresponding to these processes include: colluvia, deluvia, and proluvia, respectively. The deposits markedly differ in geological and physico-mechanical properties; this differentiation is of remarkable importance for evaluation of slope stability in geological-engineering surveys and in mapping. The above mainly applies to the colluvia and deluvia representing groups of slope deposits, the typical features of which are not yet dearly defined. Basic criteria for identification and classification of the groups and types of slope deposits are given.Downloads
